STORY

authors: Raff, Katarina Vidic, Veilan, Fruitspunch07, Lyka Lee

Mary is a single woman, about 30. She lives with her cat Thomas in her parents house. Her father died when she was 7. Her mother passed away a year ago. Mary’s mother always bear a grudge against her mother (Mary’s grandmother), that she couldn’t lived how she wanted to. She wanted to protect her daughter (Mary) from the same miserable life, but she couldn’t make it.

After mothers death the only reason what kept her alive is her cat Thomas that she loved dearly. But today is extremely painful day. She couldn’t bear the emptiness of her life in this cheerful time of year. She is tired waiting the day when death finally come for her so she decided to embrace the death herself. Climbing to the rooftop she noticed many people who possessed shining smile. “Ah, yeah”, she remembered,” Today is New Year”, but it doesn’t mean anything to her because she didn’t feel hope not even fear from jumping. She closed her eyes and she was ready to free herself from this cruel world but one word change everything “Stop”. She opened eyes and saw handsome man with messy black hair and green eyes like Thomas.

Sitting there, with a carefree attitude while smoking his cigarette.

“can’t a person have a moment for himself? Just when I am about to rest for a bit ” the man sigh irately and raise up on his two feet and light out the cigarette butt he just throw with his shoes.

“oi, woman what are you trying to do?” his presence surprise Mary that she almost slip off from the balcony.

But a hard powerful force swiftly grab her hand and pull her over, “damn it, I almost had a heart attack!” he angrily told her without realizing that he had her embrace in his sturdy chest.

Without another word, Mary tears fall from her cheek.

“w-what!? Hey hold on now. Why are you suddenly crying!?” he asked panicky but Mary herself didn’t knew why she was crying.

After a few moments, she finally stops crying while the messy hair man watches her swiping her tears with the handkerchief he gave her.

“t-thank you” Mary weakly thank him and now that she got a clear look at him, Mary was once again awe at his deep emerald green eyes.

“what are you doing here, lady?” his voice seems softer from before but he still have that stir look on his face “aren’t people like you suppose to be with their love one or something during this kind of day?”.

“I don’t have anyone” Mary softly replies “what?” he asked but once again he couldn’t hear her “if you want to say something speak up, I can’t hear anything with that kind of reply”

Irritated by his words something snap inside Mary “I said I don’t have anyone! Why is everyone else happy while I am at home alone with no one but my cat! T-that why I thought that I should just go and jump off this building but some idiot just stop me!” she angrily answer while gasping for air.

“whoa you got a serious problem lady. Just killing yourself for that kind of reason” he gave a weak reply that somehow piss her off.

Who the hell does he think he is!? Mary thought furiously.

Not only did he halt her from killing herself, now he making her angry.

That’s it! I am going to kill myself somewhere else, she told herself and quickly raise up and walks away before the same force that stop her from falling grab her “where do you think you are going?” the man asked suspiciously without letting her go.

“Were you thinking of doing the same thing somewhere else?” he interrogated.

Mary grit her teeth, irritated at having been found out so easily by a complete stranger. “It’s none of your business,” she retorted. “Now if you’ll excuse me—” She tried to escape once more, but the handsome stranger’s grip remained firm.

“Actually, it is my business,” he replied, tone matter-of-fact, “considering the fact that your dear mother assigned me the task of protecting you, and all.” Mary thought she detected a hint of sarcasm in the word “dear”, but was immediately sidetracked by the mention of her mother.

How did he know her mom? And what did he mean he was supposed to protect her?

“Look,” Mary started, all too aware of how close they were standing to one another, “I don’t know what kind of game you’re playing here, but I don’t need protection. Especially not from a person I’ve never even met up until a few minutes ago.”

The stranger shook his head as though Mary were even more of a disappointment now than when she’d been planning to jump off the building earlier. “‘Just met’? I must say, I’m insulted. Do you honestly mean to tell me that you don’t recognize your own cat when you see him?” When Mary’s expression remained blank he gave an exasperated sigh. “It’s me. Thomas. I didn’t want to have to do this considering how long it’s been since I was allowed to be in my human form, but it seems I have no other choice.”

The stranger closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and in the blink of an eye Thomas—the cat Thomas—was in his place.

Gasping, Mary instinctively took a step backwards in surprise, unaware just how close she had been standing to the building’s ledge as she lost her footing. Mary’s arms pinwheeled as she tried to regain her balance, searching for something—anything—to grab onto, but it was too late. She could already feel gravity tipping her backwards towards her doom…

And that’s when the human version of Thomas rematerialized before Mary, seizing her by the upper arm and saving her life for the second time that night. Thomas’s mouth twisted into a playful smile, barely restrained amusement dancing in those green eyes of his. “Looks like you weren’t quite ready to die after all, huh?”

“H-How did you—?”

“Because a curse was put on me,” he answered before she could finish.

“Curse?” Mary echoed. She seemed to be restricted to using only broken up sentences in her shocked state.

“Oh, did I not mention it before?” Thomas said, cheerily. “Your mother was a witch who put a curse on me,” he informed her. “And you’re a witch too. There’s no time for dying now. This adventure’s just getting started.”

Mary opened her eyes and squinted because of a bright light. Where am I? She blinked a few times and tried to get hold of her surroundings. She recognized the bare walls of the room and the softness of the bed she was lying on and recognized that she was in her room. Slowly, she sat up, massaged a throbbing pain on her head and saw her cat curled up sleeping beside her.

So it was just a dream huh, Mary thought as she lifted the cat and put him in her arms and stroked his black fur.

“Thomas, I had a weird dream last night. I was trying to jump off a building but a handsome guy with green eyes like yours suddenly appeared and saved me, he also said he was you and I was a witch!” She said and smiled when she saw the feline open one of his bright green eyes and meowed softly. “That’s impossible isn’t? My cute cat can’t be a guy haha.”

“Hmm, let’s see,” a male voice responded.

Startled, she looked at the source of the voice and saw that she is now caressing the face of the same guy from her dream and he was smirking at her.

“AHHH!” She screamed as loud as she could. What the hell?!

Cheers,
Raff

I really love these stories, even if they’re amateur they’re really fun to read! I hope you keep this going.

I think it’s really amazing how you do all you can to involve the community with each of your updates.

OMG I JUST FOUND THIS- meanwhile the due date is Aug 15th, and it’s Aug 16th night right now ;;;; Will you make the 6th “Let’s Write Story!” later??? Omg please do, i beg you- I’m on desperate state for manga continuation now…

Isnt this kinda mean….to make your loyal readers and followers go through these hoops to read manga they love? You’re into some sick shit man…and on top of that you risk their identities by having them email to a gmail account and public facebook page which would open the door for each one of them to get sued if you ever get sued- which you might at some point…not only are you making huge leaps in no privacy control to protect yourself, you’re actually trying to get your readers screwed too, and you’re making them work to get on the very site that is wide open for those privacy violations. And like a bunch of dumbasses people are actually going through your ill intentioned hoops to get on there….you guys you know that this public stuff like the NSA monitored gmail and facebook accounts will have a record of your willing participation and this asshole running this mole site is actually putting you at legal risk, so be smart and VPN that shit at least and make a fake fb account and gmail account. And also realize that this ‘contest’ to get in is actually a big insult to you readers and you all should have some level of esteem to know that. Your not dogs. You guys have supported raffmanga for a long time and this bullshit is insulting. I love manga but I love not being sued for shit this guy is data collecting for. Be careful.

Jumping out of bed tripping over his own feet, what the hell ?. “I must be dreaming, that is, this is a dream, it can not be really happening,” the familiar smiling face approached her, slowly, “I told you Mary’re a witch, just like your mother was, now you’re the one responsible for getting up this curse, which I have brought with me many years, “he said looking straight with those beautiful eyes emerald, Mary felt she was lost inside them when fell on the understanding, stepped back quickly, “I do not know what you mean, I’m not a witch, I was always alone, Mary … the lonely Mary” .. Nearing again Thomas became a cat and between purrs said “I think these more comfortable seeing me in this way that is familiar to you, “leaping and sitting on the bed,” Look should’ve brought all these years away from the witches and knowledge that you were one of them, your insurance mother sought to protect, but I leave you at the mercy of them after his death, “Mary sit’ll tell the story of how I ended up in this way and witch I met many years ago …
